IDG News Service – Watch out Google, here comes Nissan: The Japanese car maker has unveiled a concept car based on the all-electric Leaf that is able to drive and park itself.

The car, on show at this week’s Ceatec exhibition in Japan, promises an end to one of the most frustrating things a driver has to do — cruise around a packed car park looking for a space.

The advanced functions on the car are controlled from a smartphone. When the driver gets to his destination, rather than look for a parking spot the driver can tap a “park in” button on his smartphone car app and leave the rest up to the car.
